Funagain Affiliate Program - Setting up Your Site

After your application is reviewed, we will send your Affiliate Code
to the Administrator Email Address you supplied. As soon as you
receive your Affiliate Code, your account is active and ready to earn
commissions! All that remains is to set up your pages as follows.

Links

In order to receive commissions, visitors to your web site must follow
links from your web site to special URLs on the Funagain web site. The
URL will need to contain your Affiliate Code, the unique code assigned
to you when you registered for the Affiliates program. You must use
this code when linking to the Funagain Site in order for us to identify
which visitors came from your web site. Affiliate Codes are typically
a short string of capital letters.

Game Links

The most effective way to link to the the Funagain site is from
discussions or mentions of specific games on your site to that game's
Details page on the Funagain site. For example, if your site contains
a favorable review for a particular game, a link at the end of your
review to that game's page on the Funagain site would be a convenient
means for site visitors to acquire the game.

To provide a Game Link on your site, first look up the game on the
Funagain site. Every item on the Funagain site has a 6-digit Game ID,
which is displayed in the URL for that game's Detail page (look right
after either the "~product_id=" or the "?product_id=" part of the URL).
Then, edit the following URL:

http://www.funagain.com/control/product?product_id=000000&affil=XXXX

replacing 000000 with the Game ID and replacing XXXX with your own
Affiliate Code. For example, if you wish to link to the Elfenland
page, look up Elfenland on the Funagain site. When you arrive at the Elfenland
detail page, notice that the URL of the page is:

http://www.funagain.com/control/product?product_id=015150

That means that the game ID is 015150 (the bold part in the above URL).
If your Affiliate Code is TEST, you would link to the following URL:

http://www.funagain.com/control/product?product_id=015150&affil=TEST

Game IDs will always be 6 digits--be sure to include any leading zeroes.

Home Page Link

We also encourage Affiliates to provide a link to the Funagain Home
Page. To do this, edit the following URL:

http://www.funagain.com/control/main?affil=XXXX

replacing XXXX with your own Affiliate Code. For example, if your
Affiliate Code is TEST, you would link to the following URL:

http://www.funagain.com/control/main?affil=TEST

Other Links

Warning: this section is a little bit more advanced.
In general, you can link to just about any page you like on Funagain
through your affiliate account by appending either /~affil=XXXX
(if the URL already has "/~" in it somewhere), ?affil=XXXX (if the URL
doesn't have "/~" or "?" in it anywhere), or &affil=XXXX (if the
URL doesn't have a "/~" but does already have a "?" in it) to the
URL (replace XXXX with your unique 4-letter affiliate code).
However, you should probably not link to any page that requires the
user be logged in, as it would be confusing for the user. In general,
you should probably stick to home page links, product links, links to
category pages, etc.. If you have any questions about the
appropriateness of a link, please contact us.
